The health and wellbeing of our staff and customers is our number one priority. The majority of our dives and courses are proceeding as planned. However, we have suspended Emergency First Responder and PADI Rescue Diver courses due to the social distancing recommendations.
Reports of jellyfish were featuring strongly in the weekend dive reports, but after canoeing in the river they were clearly everywhere, so the choice was simply which sea site with a strong southerly. Now, the North Mole is without doubt a great dive site in such instances, but I chose the Rockingham Wreck Trail without an intrepid rock clamber for a change and tempted participants with vinegar, and bugger me, 15 people turned up!
The Key Biscayne is now left in a state of no directional control and is rolling with the heavy seas and swell. Seawater rushing over the deck begins to fill the aft section through the shale shaker return line and soon floods the mud pits and pump room.
The first club dive of 2020 and after a gourmet bbq breakfast, 23 Club Divers descended on the Point this Sunday morning to the sight of great conditions and only the smallest of breakers. After an easy snorkel out to the Northern end of the farthest reef, we dropped 8m in 23oC to a sandy seabed and then joined the reef wall following it on our left shoulder.
Once again looking for somewhere not regularly visited for the night dives, the wind direction and swell coupled with an eye on the webcams at Fremantle harbor and Trigg somehow brought the North wall at Coogee into the crosshairs. Not a spot I’d done as a night dive so it was an instant choice. Three adventurous and Christmas shopping adverse divers came along and we were soon heading into surprisingly +7m viz as we cleared the short stretch of shallows and dropped quickly down to 5m.
